Matek F405-VTOL Flight Controller

The Matek F405-VTOL is an all-in-one flight controller, built for various VTOL applications. Its integrated high-current PDB, multiple BECs for diverse voltage requirements, and expansive firmware support make it ideal for complex multirotor builds. The flight controller is crafted to provide stability with its STM32F405 MCU and ICM42688-P IMU, while the barometer and OSD contribute to detailed flight data monitoring.
